Ash stands at the opposite side of the battle field, confident as ever. This will be his greatest downfall. I sigh and shake my head. So young, so innocent. I mean, I'm like, 3 years younger than him but still...
The first battle field is... Wasteland.
"Let the Kalos League Final battle between Ash and Summer, begin!" The referee announces.
"Pikachu, I choose you!" Ash exclaims.
I smirk, "Predictable as always. Remember, this is the last round. No holding back! Bounce, take the stage!"
"Pikachu! Use, Quick Attack!" Ash yells.
"Bounce, take it! Use Bounce afterwards!" I shout, getting puzzled looks from the general crowd. I mentally facepalm. Way to phrase it Summer, well done! I just hope she understands.
Pikachu hits Bounce and suddenly gets hearts for eyes. Alright! Cute Charm, success! Bounce uses Bounce and hits Pikachu, (Yes, she understood!) dealing quite a but of damage but this is Ash's Pikachu here.
"Bounce, can the both of us work together to take the stage?" I ask, receiving a nod from her. "Mega Evolve!"
I clasp my keystone, the only charm not an emerald on my golden bracelet. Streaks of gold shoot out of my keystone, meeting with the streaks of gold which shot out of the Lopunnite on Bounce's necklace. Two streaks fuse into one sturdy blue streak and light flashes once, revealing a Mega Lopunny.
"Bounce, use High Jump Kick!" I yell, praying that it won't miss, that Pikachu won't snap out of the effects of attract.
Bam! High Jump Kick strikes, and hard too! Pikachu falls to the ground, unconscious. I feel kind of bad for Ash. He probably hasn't been beaten this quickly since Kanto... Or was it Unova?
"Pikachu is unable to battle, Lopunny is the winner!"
Ash walks onto the battle field and retrieves Pikachu, murmuring something to him.
"Hawlucha, I choose you!" He yells.
"Hawlucha, use Karate Chop!"
"Use Bounce!" I shout, making quick work of Hawlucha.
"Hawlucha is unable to battle, Lopunny is the winner!"
"Hawlucha, return! You battled well," Ash smiles, before frowning. " Noivern, I choose you! Use Boomburst!"
"Use Agility and dodge!"
Noivern uses Boomburst continuously but Bounce dodges too quickly for Noivern.
"Facade!" I yell.
Bounce becomes surrounded in an orange aura that makes its body shine. She then tackles Noivern. Awesome! Facade was one awesome move when I played Diamond (A/N Frankly, I never taught any of my Pokemon Facade, but after a Team Tag Battle at the Battle Tower with Riley, I think? I was impressed by Facade's power. I'm trying to find the TM now...), but this... This is awesome!
"Noivern is unable to battle, Lopunny is the winner!"
Bounce returns to my side and reverts back to her normal form. I close my eyes and smile, returning her to her Pokeball.
The battle field changes into... Water and rock. Hm...
"Talonflame, I choose you!" Ash yells.
"Stars, take the stage!" I exclaim.
"Talonflame, use Razor Wind!"
Talonflame's wings glow bright white and it repeatedly waves them, causing bright white, crescent-shaped energy waves to be fired at Stars.
"Double Team!"
The energy hits the fakes and they disappear, leaving Stars.
"Use Flame Charge!"
"Giga Impact!"
Stars's body becomes surrounded in an invisible energy. A bright flash of yellow light appears in front of its face and it faces towards the opponent. It then shoots itself at the opponent and an orb of light purple energy with spiralling light yellow streaks around it appear around Star's body and it slams into Talonflame with great force, just when Flame Charge hits too.
"Both Talonflame and Staraptor are unable to battle!"
I frown and return Stars, "Well performed Stars, leave the rest to us. Lightning, do what you need to do!"
I notice that Ash sent out Goodra. Hm...
"First, we fix up the battle field. Use, Rain Dance!" Ash yells.
"Lightning, I don't like this battle field. Jump up and use Thunder in the sky!"
The Rain Dance turns into something similar to Electric Terrain and I smile. Ash frowns and flexes his wrist like he does when he's trying to think of something.
"Goodra, Dragon Pulse!"
"Iron Tail right through it! Then, use Thunder and Discharge together!"
The Iron Tail successfully destroys Dragon Pulse and the two Electric attacks fuse into one, dangerously heading towards Goodra.
"Goodra is unable to battle, Parchirisu is the winner!"
"Goodra return! You did a great job. Greninja, I choose you!" Ash exclaims.
"You know Ash, ever since this Pokemon saw Ash-Greninja, she's been longing to show you what we've got. Rose, take the stage!" I yell. "Bring out everything you've got, Ash!"
"Right. Greninja, full power!"
"Rose, show them what we've got!"
The pillars of water and leaves respectively die down, revealing Ash-Greninja and Summer-Rose, as Bonnie calls them.
"Greninja, Aerial Ace!"
"Did I mention that we hate close-range attacks with a passion? Take it anyway, until... Unless nothing happens after 5 turns. Then Venoshock should work fine... Next, run around and use Sunny Day. Finally, use multiple Solar Beams!"
Rose stands there, calmly taking Greninja's attacks. Finally, after four hits, Greninja backs away slightly, poisoned. Rose takes the opportunity and uses Venoshock, speeding away afterwards while using Sunny Day. While Greninja shakes off the last of the remains of Venoshock, Solar Beams hit it from all sides. Finally, it faints.
"Greninja is unable to battle, Roserade wins. Summer is the champion!"
"Alright!" I exclaim as Rose returns to her normal form and I take out two Pecha berries from my bag. "Let me do something first."
I walk over to Ash and Greninja, smiling, "Have these, it'll get rid of the effects of the poison."
Ash smiles weakly and feeds one to Greninja, eating the other. I offer a hand to help him up, which he accepts, after which we shake hands.
Its the prize giving ceremony or whatever they call it. Diantha is talking but I'm not listening. I'm such an idiot! With my bonded form, Lysandre will be after me too! Any moment now, the vines will erupt.
My discomfort does not go unnoticed by Ash.
"What's wrong?" Ash asks after Diantha finishes talking.
I jump down from the podium, not caring if I was allowed to.
"Team Flare is coming," I tell Ash, leaving him bewildered.
"Diantha! Everyone must be evacuated out of Lumiose City right now!" I quickly tell Diantha.
She looks at me, puzzled, "Why?"
"Because-" Vines erupt from the ground. "This was going to happen!"
Everyone rushes out of the stadium or whatever. The catastrophe has begun.
